Greek Ouzo crisis escalates into global margin call as confidence ebbs

Flow data shows an abrupt withdrawal of German and Asian capital from Club Med debt markets. The EU's refusal to offer Greece anything beyond stern words and a one-month deadline for harsher austerity – while admirable in one sense – is to misjudge how fast confidence is ebbing. Greece's drama has already metastasised into a wider systemic crisis. The world risks a replay of the Lehman collapse if this runs unchecked, this time involving sovereign dominoes.

SPANISH BANKS currently have some astronomical €325 billion ($456 billion) in non-performing loans by real-estate companies (link in Spanish). That's about a third of Spain's GDP, and the companies are alerting they're not going to be able to repay that.

Let me get this straight. We're broke, in debt up to our eyeballs, our national credit card is maxed out and we can't pay the current tab, and these yahoo's cheer when the credit limit is increased? Should be criminal...

Why indeed...

Intelligence chiefs object

"The White House National Security Council recently directed U.S. spy agencies to lower the priority placed on intelligence collection for China, amid opposition to the policy change from senior intelligence leaders who feared it would hamper efforts to obtain secrets about Beijing's military and its cyber-attacks."

The Balance of Power Shifts Toward China
Steve McCann

China declared that its foreign exchange reserves had increased to $2.4 Trillion in 2009, a gain of $453 Billion in one year. It is estimated that the reserves will rise by an equal amount in 2010.

According to the Heritage Foundation and the Wall Street Journal, America is down to NUMBER 8 on the scale of Distribution of Global Economic Freedom.

Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, Switzerland and Canada are now ALL ranked as being more free than the United States of America based on our level of economic freedom.

Yet another shout out to the American public who has - as a rule - sat in their easy chair watching Dancing With The Stars instead of their legislators in Washington. Way to go guys!

"My Creed"

I do not choose to be a common man.

It is my right to be uncommon -- if I can.

I seek opportunity -- not security.

I do not wish to be a kept citizen, humbled and dulled by having the state look after me.

I want to take the calculated risk; to dream and to build, to fail and to succeed.

I refuse to barter incentive for a dole.

I prefer the challenges of life to the guaranteed existence; the thrill of fulfillment to the stale calm of utopia.

I will not trade freedom for beneficence nor my dignity for a handout.

Sick'em tea partiers.....

The Tea Party movement ignited a year ago, fueled by anti-establishment anger. Now, Tea Party activists are trying to take over the establishment, ground up.

Across the country, they are signing up to be Republican precinct leaders, a position so low-level that it often remains vacant, but which comes with the ability to vote for the party executives who endorse candidates, approve platforms and decide where the party spends money.

I have no idea what they'll do with this data but my GOSH this is FUN!
